I’ve looked back over all 28 episodes and found eight topics or themes that seemed important in Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone—things that the text has to say to the field of education, and things that education has to say back to Hogwarts. This episode takes a look at the first four topics. Here are all eight:
1. Hogwarts is a parody of school
2. All the people at Hogwarts are full humans
3. Learning theory
4. Joanne's literary tricks
5. Moral concerns
6. Things about teaching methods
7. Hogwarts as a miniature society
8. Themes I think Joanne intended
